I think it's the year with most #2-peak songs ever.

Heartless, Dead and Gone, Best I Ever Had, You Belong With Me are what come to my mind.

[Sinister]

blocked by black eyed peas was
pokerface (luckily it was #1 before their reign)
blame it
knock you down (it would have been #2 but i got a feeling was released and that debuted at #2 behind BBP)
best i ever had
you belong with me

[nky0411]

Poker Face was lucky

BIEH, RTT and YBWM was so unlucky tbh

[gabbanana]

SFTTR needs to move faster, the top 2 is so old already, they have been trading places for so many weeks now

[Canonical Ensemble]

I'm still a bit upset that PF was plocked from being an 8-week number one.

since the z100 is coming on tonight...do you think LMFAO will have a chance to get a big enough sale to overtake rihanna for #1 next week for the hot 100???

[GaGaFan]

Still glad that iTunes glitch allowed Poker Face to get a week at number one

PF reached #1 before it spent 9 weeks at #2

Lucky Gaga, but poor Miley, she will probably never get that close again.

technically you're also wrong (i believe)...PF spent one week at #2 behind Right Round before going to #1 and then spent 8 non-consecutive weeks at #2 behind BBP

[Rob!!]

Yas Adele is dark green! Top 5 soon!

True.

[Beatz]

It would've been so uncool if Poker Face didn't reach #1. One of only 6 songs to top the 6 million mark in sales.

i hate it that owl city became a one hit wonder.....!!! vanilla twilight was awesome...as was the rest of ocean eyes....!!!! his recent effort succkked!!! but i certainly wanted him to do big things!!!

I think Foster the People will end being a 1 hit wonder a la Owl City. Shame since Torches has many great songs.

[Rigalo]

All of those alternative bands who randomly get hits turn into one-hit wonders.

Owl City, that band who sang Animal, 3OH!3 (they had another hit after they sold out) come to mind.

i was afraid of saying it out loud...but yeah i guess FTP are gna be a one hit wonder too.....!!

its wierd how just one song clicks with the public and becomes such a success...without being followed by other songs by same artist same genre same public...!!
LMFAO succeeded but FTP and owl city couldnt...!!

[RobynYoBank]

Adele fell out of the Top 10 on the Hot 100 in between RITD and SLY, yes?
